You are part of the UCity Shul family. Today, we ask you to step up and become a pillar of it.
You have seen it for yourself: UCity Shul is a unique space for Jewish families. It's a welcoming home. A makom Torah where Jewish men and women focus on meaningful tefillah, engaging Torah study, and enhancing their spiritual identities.
What you may not realize, however, is just how much this amazing community relies on generous donors like you.
Your donation will go toward capital repairs that ensure this 70-year-old building can continue to serve its congregants, local families, and community organizations throughout St. Louis.
When you donate, you revitalize this storied congregation, this center for Jewish communal life.
You fix leaks in the basement where the young women of Esther Miller Bais Yaakov learn and grow. You renovate the space where the young men of MVP camp spend their summers. You ensure that there is adequate heating in the winter and cooling in the summer so Jews throughout the community can utilize our space.
But the truth is that your gift does so much more.
That's because when you donate, you provide Rabbi Menachem Tendler the resources to do what he does best: inspire and guide Jews through the next steps of their spiritual journeys.
No matter the need, no matter the obstacle, Rabbi Tendler will be there to help Jewish families: adults, children, and whomever needs his counsel! That may mean helping them provide for a simcha, navigating a difficulty, answering halachic questions, or imbuing a love of Torah with children and adults alike... all thanks to your generosity.
Now, during a global pandemic, there is no better time to invest in Torah growth. Now, when people are searching for ways to make sense of the flood of bad news... When people are looking for inspiration and a community... your donation answers their call.
This cause is so important that a group of donors has challenged us to raise $180,000 in just 30 hours. As an extra incentive, they have agreed to QUADRUPLE every dollar you donate. But you must donate by 9 pm for the match to kick in!
If we do not reach this goal, we simply won't have the means to renovate the shul or meet the growing demands of the UCity family.
Please open your heart and donate today. We don't have a moment to lose.
